Chickie’s & Pete’s will open at 25 Route 73 South in Marlton, near the meeting of Routes 70 and 73 at the former Champp’s site at the Marlton Crossing shopping center. Its Facebook page says “coming soon” regarding that location, although there is no opening date mentioned.

A location in Glassboro opened nearly one year ago on Rowan Boulevard, near the Rowan University campus.

Chickie’s & Pete’s president and CEO Pete Ciarrocchi originally said at a news conference last year the Marlton location could open by September or October of 2017 after undergoing renovations.

The 10,000-square-foot location was leased from Brixmor Property Group, and is undergoing a $2 million to $3 million renovation, according to Ciarrocchi, to brand it as a Chickie’s & Pete’s.

According to Chickie’s & Pete’s website, the Philadelphia area sports bar and restaurant chain, which was founded in 1977, has about 16 locations across Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

“As everybody knows, Marlton is happening,” Ciarrocchi said then. “It’s a great spot.”
